V23.1: Motorcycle rider injured in collision with car, pick-up truck or van : passenger injured in nontraffic accident

The condition represented by ICD-10 code V23.1 refers to an injury sustained by a motorcycle rider who was a passenger during a nontraffic accident, specifically a collision with a car, pick-up truck, or van. These injuries can vary widely in severity and type, encompassing anything from minor scratches and bruises to severe trauma. Common injuries might involve the head, neck, or extremities, particularly fractures and traumatic brain injuries, even when helmets and protective gear are worn. The injury may lead to different clinical presentations depending on its severity and the body region affected, such as pain, swelling, loss of function, or impaired consciousness. The onset of symptoms is generally immediate, occurring right after the impact or accident. Comprehensive medical evaluation is necessary to determine the full extent and implications of the injuries sustained.
